quilt-along - quilting, done

this is what the actual quilting did look like: very much bulk had to go through my machine here´s the back, the gingham and the left-over blocks from the front are looking great together and this is the front. quilted just in (more or less) straight lines. i gave up the idea of perfect parallel lines in between, and i still like the resultso i am all set and ready to do the binding..

So glad you posted this - I have made many of the same mistakes as you and that made me laugh. I fixed them the same way too.

Your quilting is very nice and has encouraged me to quilt my strawberry quilt with straight (sort of) lines. I have been trying the stippling but need way more practice and I want to get this quilt done.

well, thank you karen, for the nice comment!i really like your strawberries, and they are vivid enough to "fit" those simple lines. which have a nice quilty-feeling as well, too., depending on how near to each other you sew them.good luck with it, and see you at binding :-)
